Needle pricks

My father (like everybody) does not enjoy being pricked constantly for blood tests and transfusions. At times, when the nurses can't find a vein, they prick repeatedly at different points till they find one.

Needless to say, this is frustrating and painful. Is there really nothing that can be done to ease the pain or maybe even make it easier to find a vein?
